> 300 million US$ / year over 2005 level<br />
→ SBES is a key element for achieving progress in<br />
engineering <strong>and</strong> science<br />
→ SBES is more than modeling: new methods,<br />
procedures, processes, <strong>and</strong> planning strategies<br />
→ SBES should be a core part <strong>of</strong> engineering curriculum<br />
in many simulation fields
